A Winter Flower

We moved to my current home almost 14 years ago. We moved from a town about 5 miles south of the Chicago city limits to about 50 miles south of Chicago. I am so much happier here. Less people and way less traffic.
The first year we were here we had several flowers growing in the lawn. One of them was snowdrops, they grow all over the lawn and it's just beautiful. Once the snow melts we should be getting them soon. I took a picture of them last winter and wanted to share. They are so pretty.

Yes they seem to like lawns better than gardens. We have transplanted some of them into the flower gardens, but they do way better just in the lawn. I hope you get to see some in your area. They are pretty small as well, only a few inches tall.

I love snow drops. That is a beautiful picture. Two years ago we drove from Connecticut to Rockford, Il and then to the Quad cities and Springfield by way of Sheffield and Dixon. We really enjoyed Illinois.
